NOTE: The following information shall be included
in the contract drawings:
1. Complete scale map(s) of the Government facility
(or portion thereof) where the system is to be
installed, showing building locations and numbers,
roads and streets by name and/or number, and
significant landmarks such as airfield runways,
navigable water, etc. Such map(s) shall show the
location of each transmitter to be installed, and
location of existing equipment to be reconnected or
removed under this contract.
2. Individual building plans of sufficient detail
and scale to clearly indicate locations of
transmitters and of local alarm systems ("protected
premises control units" per NFPA 72), fire
extinguishing system control units, and individual
initiating devices to be connected to radio alarm
transmitters.
Show points of connection to AC
power for transmitter (and location light for
outdoor master boxes and/or manual fire alarm boxes).
3. Table(s) showing: each transmitter location;
transmitter code number; the number of zones to be
connected and their descriptions; and the make and
model of local control unit(s) to be tied into the
transmitter. (e.g.: Bldg. 591; transmitter # 0591,
Zone 1 - FACU common alarm contact, Zone 2 - carbon
dioxide control unit common alarm contact, Zone 3 -
fire pump running, Zone 4 - fire pump switch off
normal, Zone 5 - fire pump trouble, Zone 6 -
Spare; FACU is an XYZ Co. model ABC, carbon dioxide
control unit is a UVW Co. model EFG, etc.).
NOTE: WHEN INDICATING CONNECTIONS TO EXISTING
CONTROL UNITS, DESIGNERS MUST DETERMINE THAT THERE
ARE DRY (Form A or Form C) CONTACTS AVAILABLE WITHIN
THE CONTROL UNIT TO PERMIT THE CONNECTION.
Designers must be aware that many older control
units may lack the necessary contacts. If necessary
to provide additional contacts, the designer must
ascertain from the control unit manufacturer whether
the necessary parts are available. In cases where
the necessary contacts aren't available, it will be
necessary to indicate replacement of the control
unit or other remedial action.
4. A complete layout of the fire/emergency
communications center operations room or fire alarm
watch office showing locations of all new equipment,
existing equipment that is to remain, and equipment
to be removed. Show points of connection to power
source(s).
